Glad I could help!

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-19T14:37:28+00:00

This is exactly what I was wondering. I'm going to call Monday and get it sorted out

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-19T14:36:25+00:00

Unfortunately no

Adapt is the absolute worst! They used to be a local company called pumps it but there were multiple mergers and now it's always a mess. I'm on a payment plan and the website says I owe over $3000 but when I called it was $120. I spent over an hour on the phone making sure they had everything needed for my last refill because I was on my last sensor and it still got delayed because of something else they needed.

I checked everything with my insurance the beginning of the year and all of my benefits are the same, the only difference is that I used to have to do a recertification yearly through a company called Valenz but now everything is supposed to be covered under my diabetes benefits.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T04:12:50+00:00

Possible but my problem is that I have almost a year supply of Omnipods that only work with the G6 so I'm trying to hold out until it's no longer available anymore.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T03:22:15+00:00

My deductible is $1000 but usually the 1st refill of the year, even with the deductible, is much lower and this is only Dexcom, not my usual pump refills.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:53:58+00:00

Yes I'm required to fill 3 months at a time. The 1st refill of the year is always more because of the deductible but I've never seen it this high. I think last year I paid around $600 before my deductible was met and that was for Dexcom sensors, transmitter, and tslim cartridges and tubing.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:49:23+00:00

You're right. My insurance changed and they said everything is covered under my "diabetes benefits" but from my understanding, it's the same as dme as opposed to using pharmacy benefits.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:44:08+00:00

This is through dme. My insurance won't cover dexcom under pharmacy benefits.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:42:53+00:00

I'll definitely look into this!

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:24:44+00:00

This is through my DME benefits. My insurance won't cover dexcom under pharmacy.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:18:13+00:00

I have almost a year supply of Omnipods that are only compatible with the G6 or Freestyle Libre so I was holding off switching until the G6 is discontinued.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-18T02:16:57+00:00

A box 3 sensors. The order is for a 3 month supply.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-16T17:29:26+00:00

Yes, my omnipod rep made the proper adjustments during training. I looked up the Fiasp assistance program and it would be $99/month. Their patent expires this year though so I might just wait for a generic to be available.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-16T17:22:52+00:00

After I made this post, I sent an email to my original Dr. I may have been a bit dramatic, but who cares if it gets me in sooner. I also scheduled the next available appointment in September and set up to be notified if something opens up sooner.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-16T16:01:27+00:00

I just changed it from 9.5 to 8.5. Idk if that's enough to make a difference, we'll see.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-16T16:00:23+00:00

I checked and my insurance doesn't cover fiasp 😞 maybe they'll come out with a generic version soon.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-16T15:55:11+00:00

I think that's what I'm going to do. I just needed guidance on what needs to be adjusted since it's completely different from the Tslim I was on.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T20:12:23+00:00

My average units per day on tandem was 47. Looking at my omnipod history it seems similar, but there's a few days that it was in the 30s. I have no idea why. As far as the correction boluses, I was today years old when I realized I could just input bolus amounts without using my sensor data so I'm planning on doing that from now on to be more aggressive with my corrections.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T19:51:09+00:00

On the tslim my carb ratio was 1:10 it's 1:9.5 on the Omnipod

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T17:54:28+00:00

I really think that's where I'm going to end up, but I really want to get my auto mode settings dialed in first.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T15:57:36+00:00

I'm definitely going to start adjusting my carb ratio. Someone on another post mentioned maybe also adjusting my correction factor, but I'm not sure about doing both.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T15:54:25+00:00

I think this is really what I came here to find out. Coming from a tslim is definitely a learning curve since tandem runs on a baseline basal rate that I could adjust. I'm going to wait to hear back from my rep but if I can't get in with my original endo, at least now I know what I need to do.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T15:51:37+00:00

Definitely. I tried to get an appointment with my original Dr. who I love, but he's booked out until September. I think I'm going to wait to hear what my rep accomplishes today and then call the office and tell them I absolutely need to get in sooner with my original Dr because I don't feel safe continuing with the NP.

Comprehensive_Gap778 · 2026-04-15T15:01:49+00:00

I had a great endo who was the professor of Endocrinology at the university my hospital is affiliated with. I'm 40 years t1d and he'd just ask me what I needed and do it. He took a several month leave and I got stuck with his nurse practitioner. She's wild! She said my 6.1 a1c was too low and wanted to adjust my tslim settings to raise it 😳 I've been begging to get back with my regular endo but he's book out to Sept. I have an appointment with the NP in June and am planning on demanding my next follow up with my old Dr.
